My thoughts exactly.... And how will they pay the $4000 to fly there if it's a family? They have no passports, visas, etc. If they've lost everything, that money would be their only asset. And what are they going to do there in the meantime? They probably can't speak any European language (remember these are rural folk for the most part), the elderly would need medical assistance....
As honorable and kind a gesture this is, the impracticality of it borders on the ridiculous....
